PD is the one to have, cheeky chip on the 130 and it'll be over 200lbft easily, without loosing economy!
Apparently, youve got to know your onions when it comes to electrics and immobilisers with the PD, they're a bit tricky

TD not TDi, MUCH easier to do.

what a silly poll mate - essentially the two options are keep or sell. And as if anyone on here would ever suggest someone get rid of a vehicle!! ;D there was a feature on a bus with a TD conversion in ultra or volksworld a few months back i seem to remember ... ?

with the right 'box a TD pulls as well as a 1.9 petrol, cheaper too.

it is a bit isnt it I'm gonna dig that copy of volksworld out and have a look. gonna look into the cost and ease/difficulty of the derv swap.if its mega bucks or a bit of a chew then itl go. the only way I'm gonna keep it is in diesel guise. economical and able to sit at 90 on the way to newquay is the way forward.that should take 8 ish hours, not the 13 i managed last time i took it down. I'm on my way ;D
